List of Ingredients
1 oz. square unsweetened chocolate
1 Tbsp. butter
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1-1/3 cups sifted powdered sugar
6 Tbsp. instant nonfat milk powder
Recipe
Place chocolate and butter in 4-cup glass measuring cup with a handle.
Microwave, uncovered, at high power for at least 1 minute, stirring once
during cooking time,
until chocolate is melted. Stir in corn syrup and vanilla.
Return to microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute. Remove from
microwave
and mix in 1 cup powdered sugar. Add the instant milk powder and stir
thoroughly.
Turn mixture onto waxed paper that has been sprinkled with the rest of
the powdered sugar.
Knead candy until stiff, adding as much powdered sugar as necessary to
form a stiff but pliable dough.
Divide candy into four parts, then roll each part into pencil-size
strips. Cut each strip into 10 pieces
and wrap in waxed paper. You may need to refrigerate the candy to set.
Makes 40 pieces
